Off tangent but I’m kinda curious how the Moderna vaccine will play out. I don’t understand the subject enough so would love to hear others thoughts on it. From what I can tell, rather than making our immune system respond to the spike protein like the Covid vaccines, it tries to make our B cells react to HIV that’s usually “undetectable” by our immune system.

Are you talking about an unreleased Moderna HIV vaccine? I'm pretty sure you are, but when you say "Moderna vaccine" most people will read that as Moderna COVID vaccine, because it's been released and widely administered. It's too easy to read your comment as implying the Moderna COVID vaccine has some kind of anti-HIV component.
I need to research more about the vaccine, but as far as I know the issue with HIV is that it not only injects genetic code into cells like most viruses, it integrates into the DNA of your T-Cells. Even if you eliminate all viruses, your own cells will produce more from scratch because they blindly follow the blueprint.
So I really want to learn more about how this vaccine works.
